Candidate	Office	Result	Analysis
Max Miller, who served in the Trump White House	Ohio 16th Congressional District	36-year-old Never-Trumper incumbent Rep. Anthony Gonzalez (R-OH) pulled out of the race for his own seat, despite former popularity.	More than any election, Gonzalez's stunning abandonment of his seat after Trump endorsed a primary opponent to him sends shock waves nationwide, and solidifies Trump's leadership of the GOP.
Mike Carey	Ohio 15th Congressional District	won its primary in 2021 by a wide margin	opponents included state legislators endorsed by outgoing congressman and others
Susan Wright	Texas 6th Congressional district	won the primary, but lost the runoff to another Republican who benefited from cross-over Dem votes	Wright would have won if the Dem candidate had not surprisingly failed to qualify for the runoff, such that a moderate Republican then won Dem votes. Also, Club for Growth mishandled the race, spending lavishly on negative ads that backfired, instead of funding a grassroots effort.
Herschel Walker	U.S. Senate seat of Georgia	Walker is the front-runner in 2021, for the primary election to be held in 2022.
Harriet Hageman	Wyoming Congressional seat	the incumbent Rep. Liz Cheney is an unrepentant Never-Trumper who voted for the second impeachment of him.
